Product Description The Mis-Education of the Negro is one of the most important books on education ever written. Carter G. Woodson shows us the weakness of Euro-centric based curriculums that fail to include African American history and culture. This system mis-educates the African American student, failing to prepare them for success and to give them an adequate sense of who they are within the system that they must live. Woodson provides many strong solutions to the problems he identifies. A must-read for anyone working in the education field.
The MIS-EDUCATION of the NEGRO March 25, 2008 This is a wonderful book. I read it many years ago as a young person. And after becoming an adult I purchased it and read it again. My son read it when he was younger and he still keeps a copy at his home. His son is reading it now. This is a book that everyone should read. It's a great read for blacks, because it's about blacks. However, this book is enlightening for anyone who dares to pick it up. Great read!
All Black folk must read! March 14, 2008 This book has been a mainstay in Black Literature because the relevance of the content still apply, and have applied to every generation of African-Americans since it was originally published in 1933. I recommend this book to all African-Americans, young and old.

This is book a must have for anyone studying African American History. If you are building a library, it cannot be complete without this writing - this is one of the foundational cornerstones.

This book is such an eye-opening piece of work. I believe that people of all races can be motivated by this book.
Repeating what has been said before, this is a Must Read for All Black Americans September 16, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Although copyright for this title is dated 1933, I found that the vast majority of the information therein, pertinent, applicable, and relative to our situation today. This book-as it has been said before-should be required reading for all Black Americans.
The analysis put forth by Dr. Carter G. Woodson on subjects like commerce, religion, and the value of an uncompromising education within our community, are profound.
